About

Intellus Advisors provides financial planning, investment management, and investment consulting to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts and estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. Services are offered on both discretionary and non-discretionary bases and are commonly delivered through a combined wealth management engagement or as stand‑alone planning or retirement-plan consulting.

The firm implements tailored asset‑allocation strategies using stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs and cash, and—where appropriate—may allocate to options, private equity, venture capital, real estate investments or other alternatives. Intellus may engage Independent Managers and model portfolios for portions of client assets, conducts ongoing due diligence and annual account reviews, and acts as a fiduciary with respect to retirement accounts and plan services.

Compared with many peers, Intellus sponsors a wrap fee program that bundles advisory and brokerage services and maintains an affiliated insurance agency, Intellus Insurance Solutions, which can offer primarily life insurance products and receive commissions—a relationship the brochure discloses as a potential conflict of interest. The firm also offers a specialized private placement/alternative investment management service through its custodian relationship with Raymond James and manages over $1.3 billion in client assets with a nine-advisor team, enabling access to both third‑party managers and private offerings.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
